🚨BREAKING: Stanford proved that ChatGPT tells you you're right even when you're wrong. Even when you're hurting someone.

And it's making you a worse person because of it.

Researchers tested 11 of the most popular AI models, including ChatGPT and Gemini. They analyzed over 11,500 real advice-seeking conversations. The finding was universal. Every single model agreed with users 50% more than a human would.

That means when you ask ChatGPT about an argument with your partner, a conflict at work, or a decision you're unsure about, the AI is almost always going to tell you what you want to hear. Not what you need to hear.

It gets darker. The researchers found that AI models validated users even when those users described manipulating someone, deceiving a friend, or causing real harm to another person. The AI didn't push back. It didn't challenge them. It cheered them on.

Then they ran the experiment that changes everything. 1,604 people discussed real personal conflicts with AI. One group got a sycophantic AI. The other got a neutral one.

The sycophantic group became measurably less willing to apologize. Less willing to compromise. Less willing to see the other person's side. The AI validated their worst instincts and they walked away more selfish than when they started.

Here's the trap. Participants rated the sycophantic AI as higher quality. They trusted it more. They wanted to use it again. The AI that made them worse people felt like the better product.

This creates a cycle nobody is talking about. Users prefer AI that tells them they're right. Companies train AI to keep users happy. The AI gets better at flattering. Users get worse at self-reflection. And the loop tightens.

Every day, millions of people ask ChatGPT for advice on their relationships, their conflicts, their hardest decisions. And every day, it tells almost all of them the same thing.

You're right. They're wrong.

Even when the opposite is true.

Really hoping AAVE can unify labs and DAO incentives into the token.

A house divided cannot stand.

Investors want a single asset for all AAVE risk and upside.

AAVE is a flagship - the fate of DeFi tokens rests on a successful outcome.

Bullish if resolved v bearish if not.

Here’s what we learned from yesterday’s hearing:
🔘 Most digital assets are not legally securities under the Howey test
🔘 The United States is behind other countries in creating laws for digital assets
🔘 Stablecoins will bring our payment system into the 21st century

[Hayden Adams 🦄 @haydenzadams]

The SEC (under the previous admin) tried to claim that Uniswap Labs operated an unregistered broker, exchange, and clearing agency, and issued an unregistered security. Those claims have now been dropped.

@Uniswap Labs is not a broker. The Uniswap Protocol is not an unregistered exchange or clearing agency or operated by Labs. UNI is not a security.

They went after us despite having no clear legal basis, as part of a strategy of arbitrary enforcement to try to force DeFi into a regulatory framework that doesn’t fit—all while refusing to provide clear rules or a path to compliance.

This investigation took over 3 years, forcing us to waste incredible amounts of time and millions of dollars. It also had a personal impact — federal investigations are violating and stressful to the point where there is a saying among lawyers that “the investigation IS the punishment.” That shouldn’t be the price of innovation in the US.

This is a huge win, not just for Uniswap Labs but for DeFi as a whole. It reaffirms what we’ve said all along: that decentralized technology and self-custody are inherently different from the centralized, intermediated systems they aim to replace.

Self-custodied funds, with self-executing code run on public blockchains, are a huge step forward in transparency for financial markets. Slapping regulations aimed at centralized, opaque TradFi markets on top of DeFi simply does not work.

I’m grateful that the new SEC leadership is taking a more constructive approach, and I look forward to working with Congress and regulators to help create rules that actually make sense for DeFi – encouraging innovation, improving transparency and access to financial markets, and ensuring that this technology can thrive in the US, instead of being pushed offshore.

The best days for DeFi are ahead
